Oh yeah, good call. Will do. |
Thanks! This is great. I think we will definitely go to one of the SC bars. |
Thanks for the info. I have actually watched a game at Rock Bottom before, and they do have a good setup. |
Hi, my mom is coming to visit this weekend, and we want a good bar to go and watch the USC-Syracuse game. Any recommendations? We are staying near the Magnificent Mile, and don't mind a good walk. Thank you very much for your suggestions! Edit: I forgot to mention, the football game is in the afternoon, ~2:30-6. |
Thank you so much! I was thinking 75-100 per person. In the past I have taken him to MK and The Purple Pig. Both were great! I maybe am looking for an atmosphere closer to The Purple Pig. We're staying at the Omni. |
Thanks for the info. I have some time, 3 weeks out. I just want to make sure to pick a good place to take him to. But it doesn't look like I can get a res at Girl and the Goat, crazy. I heard Sable is good. |
My dad is meeting me in Chicago. I want to take him to dinner some place (don't think I can afford alinea, but somewhere reasonably expensive is good) that we can talk long over many drinks, and top it off with a great meal. Was thinking publican, any suggestions? Publican vs. girl and the goat? Thanks! |

South African photographer Pieter Hugo is known for his arresting and unsettling portraits of African life. For his latest series, Nollywood, he interpolates the burgeoning industry of Nigerian cinema into everyday scenarios to construct fictional surreal situations.
Nollywood is the world's third largest film industry, turning out some 1,000-2,000 videos for the home video market every year. Produced on shoestring budgets with a great deal of improvisation, movies are often made in the span of a week under very harsh and uncertain conditions. Featuring local actors in "real life" locations, the movies reflect everyday life. According to Federica Angelucci, curator of the Michael Stevenson Gallery, tragic narratives address familiar themes — romance, comedy, witchcraft, bribery, and prostitution. "The aesthetic is loud, violent, excessive; nothing is said, everything is shouted."
While working and traveling in West Africa, Hugo found it impossible not to watch these ubiquitous movies. At first mistaking them for soap operas, Hugo soon realized "that they were interesting in their own way, because they were in many respects among the first examples of contemporary, mass-media self-representation in Africa. These are movies made by Africans for Africans, with their own stories…"

Last night, the internet voting zombies people spoke and declared who and what they favored most from 2012's crop of films at the 2013 People's Choice Awards, and to the surprise of absolutely no one it was "The Hunger Games" which came out on top of the wins list.
"Hunger Games" snagged the win for Favorite Movie as well as Favorite Action Movie, Favorite Movie Franchise and Favorite On-Screen Chemistry. The film also garnered its now two-time Oscar-nominated leading actress Jennifer Lawrence a win for Favorite Movie Actress and Favorite Face of Heroism, which was great because her speech was - per usual - completely adorable.

Team Edward gasped in unison on Wednesday night when the "Twilight" star debuted his new shaved head at the People's Choice Awards, where "Water For Elephants" won the award for Favorite Drama Movie. You can barely hear Pattinson's humble and gracious words as he accepts the award on behalf of the entire production due to all of the squealing teenage girls in the audience, though one has to wonder -- are they just reacting as they usually do when in the presence of Robert Pattinson, or is there a little bit of shock and awe over his new appearance in those high-pitched screams as well?

Seemingly all of Hollywood stepped out for the People's Choice Awards on Wednesday night, where "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2," Emma Stone and Johnny Depp emerged as the evening's big winners.
The final chapter in the saga of the Boy Who Lived took many awards back to Hogwarts, including Favorite Movie, Favorite Action Movie, Favorite Ensemble Movie Cast and Favorite Book Adaptation.

Tell Your Senators: Speed Afghan Withdrawal, Oppose War with Iran
November 28, 2011The National Defense Authorization Act is now before the Senate. This is an opportunity for Senators to support an accelerated withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan and to formally end the war in Iraq. Unfortunately, it's also an opportunity for Senators to push the U.S. further towards military confrontation with Iran.
Will you write to your Senators and urge them to press for an expedited military withdrawal from Afghanistan, to repeal the authorization for the use of force in Iraq, and to oppose new sanctions on Iran that could push us towards a military conflict?

Here is a shot of the cockpit of my Yak in the yard. http://s146.photobucket.com/albums/r...t=IMG_1964.jpg This is my Yak beached at one of my favorite Bass fishing ponds that regularly gives up several 5-6 lbs bass every trip out on the water. |
Its cool you guys are into kayak fishing too. I wish I knew about it years ago before I bought a Ranger. I'm doing my first kayak only bass tourny on Sante Cooper lake,SC in march. can't wait.
the two best things about having a boat is the day you buy it and the day you sell it.
I really like the hobie my friend has a one man and its nice that's for sure. If the price wasn't so ridiculous for the two man I might own one. I tend to have a fishing partner for the most part. I think other kayaks are better set up for fishing then the hobie but the handless paddle system is the cats a$$. right now this is at the top of my list and I will be ordering this soon. http://www.nucanoe.com/models/frontier/ I love the features it has. I don't think any other kayak/canoe is thought out this well. I will be putting a small electric trolling motor on the back along with a vexilar flasher and would like to rig up some type of a lighting system also. If I just wanted a one man fishing kayak it would be this http://www.backcountry.com/ocean-kay...9-001b2166c62d this is very well thought out for fishing. if this was a two man i would be all over it. |
I've got a pungo 120 by wilderness systems...it's the best investment I have ever made for fishing and other outdoor recreational activities.
Do take those weight capacities on Yaks with a serious grain of salt. From my personal experience they are very generous or that is the weight it takes to completely sink them!
Kayak Fisherman right here also and 99% of the time is with a Fly Rod.
I also love my Native Watercraft Ultimate 12 Angler Kayak (http://www.austinkayak.com/products/...ler-Kayak.html) it weights only 55 Lb. I can handle it alone. |
I fish out of a 13 trident by ocean kayak. Here in the Chesapeake bay. Was fishing for stripper last week in 35 degrees. A set of waders and good to go.y yak is part of my bug out gear or my only vehicle if that is the way. I'm taking a old ladder and making a cart for yak to get it around behind foot , bike, or xs650 motor sickle. Gould help with my versatility would like to pack ladder on yak for more range. Look on you tube for kayak powered by 2 stroke weedeater mud motors. Not fast but beats paddling an quiet when you run exhaust under water
I'm thinking about selling my 16' Coleman Scanoe and buying a fishing kayak. I'm tired of toting a trolling motor and battery around and it would be a good reason to minimalize the rest of my equipment. I could use the exercise, too. The Scanoe is nice, but it's not exactly a paddling canoe, especially when you fish alone.
1-17-13 update: I told my wife about my plans to sell my Scanoe and buy a kayak. She flatly said no... but I could still buy a kayak. Her reasoning? I only paid $50 for the canoe and if I changed my mind about the kayak, I probably wouldn't be able to find another canoe for that price. She's a good woman... and smart, too. |

I am looking at the 14 ft model here
http://www.bayourapidesfiberglass.co...andria_La.html Or possibly one of Paw Paws http://www.pawpawspirogues.com/index.php |
Ha, I wont let my oldest son read this post hes been itching to get one for awhile, my brother has one he fishes out of and was telling my son about it while they were talking fishing, I know that there are distinct advantages to using one, but we have a 17 ft StarCraft that we reworked into a family fishing boat (with 5 children) I wanted more stable footing and room, but I didnt want a pontoon. So I found this older boat and put in the elbow grease. We also have a small 12 ft aluminum Cadillac boat that we have a 3.5 hrp Evinrude on. Between the two I feel like we have the boat thing covered, but he really wants to try kayak fishing
I've been meaning to get back into kayaking.
I prefer the sit in instead of sit on top style of Kayak. Just my personal preference and I think either is great for the purpose. As others have said, you don't need much water at all (depth) to get paddling. Really astonishing how little water will float one. The stealth factor is huge. Exercise value is awesome. |
I've got two.. one for freshwater and one for saltwater. There is nothing like catching a big one on a kayak and having it drag you around everywhere. Also, I love to see the look on peoples face when I'm easily paddling my low profile, flat bottom kayak upstream on a very fast current. Everybody that tests one will typically want to buy one.

Wilderness Systems Tarpon 160i here:
Since the pic I've added a hardwired/hard mounted nav light, depth finder and compass. A small motorcycle battery lives inside and a milk crate type organizer in the tank well. If I had to do it again, I'd get the 145. This one is super stable and fast but the length and weight make it unwieldy once out of the water. I have to be creative to load it onto a vehicle by myself. |
The momentum of the pack is not determined by the leader, but by whos chasing them!
Man I had serious nightmares about things like that off the La Jolla Kelp beds in SOCAL. Mako's were quiet common there and I even got a 6 footer on one occasion. Man what a Knarly set of dentures that guy had. Would have been an orthodonist's dream come true! I screamed like a little 12 year old school girl everytime it even looked like it was going to flinch trying to get my rig out of its mouth! |

System Bandwidth for Cascaded Amplifiers
This Demonstration calculates the total system risetime and bandwidth for a series of up to six cascaded amplifiers as a function of the individual bandwidths of each amplifier. It assumes that each individual amplifier does not load or change the bandwidth of any other amplifier.
Contributed by:
Allen Hollister
Slider Zoom
Gamepad Controls
The approximate total system bandwidth
, for a series of cascaded wide-bandwidth amplifiers is given by the equation
are the bandwidths of the individual amplifier stages. The units for the bandwidth sliders are controlled by the "units of frequency" button. It is assumed that each stage is independent of other stages—input impedance of each stage is infinity and the output impedance is zero. The equation is approximate, but reasonably accurate for most amplifiers. Most accuracy occurs when one amplifier is clearly the dominant pole. Worst case accuracy occurs if all amplifiers are identical in bandwidth. In this case, the most accuracy occurs when the individual amplifiers have a maximally flat envelope delay (MFED) filter response. For this special case, and with a six-amplifier system, a 3.36% error occurs. The number of actual poles within any one particular amplifier is unimportant to this equation as long as the above conditions are satisfied.
Bandwidth and risetime are approximately related by the equation
, where
is the bandwidth in GHz and the system risetime trs is in ns. The actual units for the system risetime are selectable using the "units of time" button. This equation is approximate and is most accurate when the system filter response is MFED. This equation can be used to calculate a bandwidth for an individual amplifier should the risetime be known instead of the amplifier bandwidth.

Kansas River float cancelled
The Arkansas River Coalition has cancelled Saturday and Sunday's float down the Kansas River, set to begin near Junction City. The Kansas River was to be floated because the Arkansas River is too low.
A online press release said it was cancelled because of massive snow amounts.
The release also predicted that pending snow melt could also make it much easier to again float the Arkansas River southward from Wichita in the coming weeks. Floating the river has been extremely difficult since mid-summer because of declining water levels.
The group dedicated to protecting the Arkansas River often shares it with the general public through a variety of floats. Often, the group provides all needed equipment for those participating in events.
For more information, go to www.arkriver.org.

Join us for GrowthBeat Summit on June 1-2 in Boston, where we'll discuss how to merge creativity with technology to drive growth. Space is limited. Request your personal invitation here! SoundCloud, an audio file sharing site for music professionals, has raised €2.5 million ($3.3 million) in its first round of funding. The Berlin-based startup entered the crowded file-sharing market last year with a private beta, but its executives say the service has since grown to 100,000 registered users. The site works by providing a web-based platform for storing and sharing uncompressed audio files. But, rather than focusing on the average file sharer, SoundCloud targets its service toward file transfers between musicians, producers, and record industry executives. Since these types often trade large, email-crashing audio files for collaboration, production, and promotional purposes, SoundCloud positions itself as a file size restriction-free alternative to its competitors. The crux of SoundCloud's platform is its proprietary servers. Once a user has uploaded a track to SoundCloud, its recipients can choose to download the track, or listen directly from the service. In addition to one-to-one file transfers, SoundCloud also enables group distribution options, while also offering a basic suite of analytics tools for tracking download activity. Using these tools, musicians can follow the popularity of a track with other SoundCloud users, or use the service's embeddable player to publish stored tracks to the web. (See below) http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?track=florian-meindl-autist-mbf FLORIAN MEINDL – autist (MBF) (releasedate: 20.04.2009) by Florian Meindl SoundCloud even took a page from Flickr's book on licensing. Rather than navigating the murky landscape of digital media licensing/collaboration, SoundCloud lets file owners choose the type of licensing attached to their uploads. So, if an independent artist wants to invite other musicians to remix/adapt their work, they can do so under the umbrella of creative commons licensing. In spite of today's news, there's still the elephant in the room — SoundCloud's numerous competitors. While the service's free entrance fee is likely to appeal to independent artists (power users can pay a subscription fee for unlimited uploads), a portion of the record industry is already grandfathered into a similar service from Digidesign (makers of ProTools). On the amateur side of things, SoundCloud also faces opposition from myriad free file transfer services like YouSendIt, MediaFire, and Joggle. To be fair, SoundCloud was wise to differentiate itself a by focusing on audio files (and cloud-based playback) specifically, but its longevity will hinge on its ability to innovate within that niche. SoundCloud's recent round of funding was led by Doughty Hanson Technology Ventures. The company raised an angel round for an undisclosed amount prior to its launch in 2007. VentureBeat's VB Insight team is studying marketing analytics... Chime in here, and we'll share the results.

Ms. Rice's optimism is hopefully well placed. But, the more important
question why we should have had to weather this "governance problem" at
Holding the Nation hostage to achieve what Republicans cannot
achieve via the vote is not governance, but criminal activity. When a gang of 40
tea party conservatives can break the backbone of the Republican party and allow
it to have no conscious, such actions place the Republic in peril. Abraham
Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower and Ronald Reagan would be saddened
to admit that this was the same party that they were part of.

"Rice predicted the United States would weather its governance challenges

said "We don't want the next smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud"
that led directly to our decade long intrusion into Iraq that has left thousands
of brave American soldiers dead and many thousands more with permanent physical
scars and loss of limbs.

I would give Rice a sincere look if she ran in 2016. She is smart and has great
experience. I think she would make a very good leader. Heck, I would give most
GOP nominations a fair look.
The question for me becomes this.
Does the GOP want an intelligent and thoughtful leader whose experience
and expertise would be drawn on OR do the want someone who will cater to the
far right of the party and rubber stamp the right wing ideology.
may have voted for Mitt Romney if he had been allowed to govern based on facts
and experience (Mitts fortay.)
Unfortunately, in today's
climate, those that control the primary process in the GOP only want someone who
will do exactly what they want. They want a right wing ideologue.
And that is probably not Rice. And it would probably not be Reagan in todays
No, I predict they will nominate someone like Cruz, lose
again, and blame the electorate.

Ms. Rice seems impervious to Washington Corruption. Perhaps their is hope in getting a leader without an agenda, other than to empower people to solve their own problems and strengthen individual God given rights. If she believed that, wouldn't that be a different leader? It is obvious we don't have those kind of leaders now, excepting, for the time being, Mike Lee.

Of course we'll weather our "governance problem." That's because in our system, the government is more of a tolerated nuisance than a need. Each state has the ability to act as a sovereign body and each citizen has the right to manage their own lives. This drives Socialists and Progressives insane! They really think we need them to tell us how to live. To them I say, hit the road!

If Hillary Clinton is the Democrat's nominee in the next presidential election, the only way the Republican's can win is by nominating a strong female opponent. My vote would go to Condaleeza Rice.

I wonder why she made that last statement, if it weren't that she secretly wants to achieve what her parents indicated she could achieve. I believe she is electable. I would like to see her run.

Why not Hillary? She would be my choice. And she would make an excellent president and do wonderful and great things for our country.

How refreshing! I like that Lady.
"she tells her students that
clinging to like-minded people will render them unable to defend their views or
recognize when they are wrong"
I have my own personal views. I
know people who seemingly have almost the opposite views that I do but they are
good people who have just as much interest as I do in the well being of
individuals and our nation, so it is important to me to listen and try to
understand what and where there perspective is coming from.

Rice is a smart person, and seems to know her stuff.
My issue is when
she was National Security Advisor to Bush she knew there was an imminent attack
on the US, most likely using aircraft. This was based on communications traffic
and other evidence. She went to warn Bush who said "Don't bother me
swatting at flies". She did not call in Clarke (Counter terrorism Czar and
a member of the FBI team) to make the case. She did not have the courage to
stop Bush and make him listen, but was simply dismissed. Had the security at
airports been enhansed with a notice from the President, 911 may not have
happened. At this critical time she was weak, sent out of the office like a
child without protest.
Read Richard Clarke's book.

We had made a reservation at Kramer Books' Afterwords. Good food, seasonal menu, informal but capable service. 5:30 or 6 p.m. will give you enough time for dinner before you walk to the theater for a 7:30 curtain.
